PROFILE:

FIFL Experience: Named 2003 Offensive Player of the Year. Also named to the American Conference All-Pro Team. Named MVP following 2009 season, after passing for a career best 3,804 yards, 71.8 percentage, and 117.1 QB rating. Second all-time for most rushing yards in a season by a quarterback with 294, set in 1999. Holds the record for the longest rush by a quarterback with 77, set in 2001. Shares the record with three others for most rushing touchdowns by a quarterback with 3, set in 2000.

Professional Experience: Played one year for the Lincoln Lightning (IFL) in 1999. Finished the season 110 for 187 (58.8 percent) for 1,082 yards with 22 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. Ran 74 times for 402 yards (5.4 average) with 15 touchdowns.

College: Played for the Nebraska Cornhuskers as a backup to Scott Frost. The former walk-on played in 1994, 1996, 1997 and 1998, primarily as a backup quarterback, but was always ready when needed. Christo endured numerous injuries throughout his career and had surgery on his knee, back and thumb (twice). He became just the first Husker walk-on to start a game at quarterback since 1973 and the first since Matt Turman started against Kansas State in 1994, when he got the starting nod vs. Texas. He earned the starting role after coming off the bench to lead the Huskers to victory over Missouri the week before. In 1998, Christo rushed for 223 yards and three TDs and passed for 261 yards and two more TDs

Personal: Nicknamed "The Count". From Kearney, Nebraska.
